AVENT Philips Video Baby Monitor – Private and secure with A-FHSS technology, 2.7 inch color screen, Soothing lullabies & talkback (Model SCD833/05)

What an excellent baby monitor! Perfect to monitor naps and nighttime sleep. Ideal if you don't want to have to get out of bed and check on them after every little sound. It's just so easy to operate. Plug in the camera, set it up in a place of good vision to the cot and then switch on the monitor. They pair in a second, immediately and automatically. The camera quality is very good and clear both in the daytime and nighttime. There's barely any difference in visibility. I like that it has built in lullabies but it could have done with white noise too. There's various features to choose from. The range is good, my toddler can be napping upstairs whilst I'm cooking in the kitchen downstairs. There's also talkback for reassuring them. I think this is great quality and so much easier than cheaper cameras that work with apps. You can have this on you whilst being able to use your phone. I definitely recommend it!

Worked brilliantly for 9 months then the night vision packed up. OK, leave the nightlight on and it’s not a problem. Weeks later it’s glitching and annoying without known cause so presumably some component is failing randomly.

This baby monitor requires no setup, truly plug and play. It comes with two power adaptors with MicroUSB plugs. First impression is this is a very well-made high quality product. The monitor itself is rechargeable. Battery last very long especially in eco mode which only turn on when sound is detected. The video resolution is grainy but it does the job of seeing what your baby is doing. You may set the sensitivity of sound (baby crying) detection, so it is not triggered by every bit of murmur. You may play lullabies from the monitor to the camera, there are a few tunes built-in. Tried putting the camera on the corner room upstairs with the monitor in the other corner room downstairs, connects straightaway, streaming smoothly without issues. Being a Philips Avent product, I would be happy to pay a bit more for the branding. But this camera is expensive even for the brand. For much less, you could get a bigger monitor with temperature detecting on the camera amongst other functions. Therefore, this is not five stars from me I am afraid.

sound wasnt very loud, picture reasonable but no zoom or pan and quite a small window of view. it is pretty good with the signal, works well around the house when little one is sleeping but not a scratch on the old motorola we had (which is no longer available)

The Philips Advent baby monitor has come on a lot of years since I was a baby, now I can see. No instructions came with the monitor, but fairly easy to set up I charged both units overnight, then one is plugged in my bedroom, the other in the lounge. I have no small children now, but I have two dogs, and one is 16+ the other 4years old. My eldest one a Staffie is hobbling a lot now, and because both dogs sleep in the living room, I wanted to keep my eye on them both and where they are at night. I like to hear my older dogs breathing at night, or rather snorting as Staffies do. Because we sleep downstairs, I do like my security, all my home outside is covered in security lights and the dogs can walk around my building if any intruders. The monitor is very good at picking up anyone in the living room, and I can see everything day or night. As I am disabled and cannot move very quick, this monitor alerts me to sounds in the living room, so if anyone breaks into my home, I will know before the culprits reach my bedroom which is locked, so can ring the police if necessary. So basically as well as intended as a baby monitor, there are some extra ideas in which I wanted this monitor for. Charge up overnight or the company state 10 hours. Keep the video with you, the other unit wherever you wish. Can be dipped up or down to see clearly. Made very well and I have not seen any cut outs of power, nor hazy unclear pictures. If the screen needs more light or maybe darker this can be done. Can be silent if necessary, or a good volume on the unit. Very clear images, not the clearest as more expensive models, but clearly you would see the baby, or in my case my dogs and whether I am broken into. The range really good, can be used if in the garden An excellent monitor and one I will gladly recommend. A great comfort to any new Mum and Dad. ⭐️Thank you to the seller ⭐️I hope my review helps you

I am very disappointed with this monitor and especially with the Philips company, as usually they have good quality. But with this monitor nothing works as it should. First of all it doesn’t work anywhere in the house, beside the living room as it doesn’t have good connection apparently. The view of the camera is too close and I can only see the baby’s face and it’s not practical to be held on a camera holder either, which I purchase separately. It’s very annoying to move the camera view as it takes a few steps to go to the option to move it. In dark, the view is not good either. Not happy at all!!!

I'm not sure if it's just my house but the signal strength was very poor and the parent unit started losing signal and sound was intermittant around 10m from the camera in my lounge, which is next to my child's bedroom. I returned the camera as I need the signal to go further than that. I have another brand's camera, sadly discontinued, and although the quoted signal distance is lower it is actually much further in reality. That said the sound, when it worked, seemed very crisp and the camera was a good as my other unit. For a number of reasons I don't use Wifi cameras, which I know may have longer signal, but I do expect products to perform a stated and this unit says 300m outside and 30m inside (I assume to allow for walls interfering with the signal).

Il aurait été judicieux de préciser que les chargeurs sont en prise anglaises et non française ! Ce n’est stipulé nul part … nous sommes donc obligés d’acheter des adapteurs pour pouvoir nous ne servir. Très déçus

N’acheter pas cet article, la prise de chargement est anglaise donc impossible de m’en servir!!!! Et retour impossible.
